Looks like Shadegg is coming around, finally. At least the President may be listening to him now instead of open border RINOs McCain and Kolbe.

Gee how about they actually PASS some legislation instead of sitting around whining at Bush? Last time I checked Congress was a "Co-equal" branch of Govt. As arrogant as these Congress critters are about their progatives, I would expect Freepers to demand they actually DO something in return instead of letting them sit on their butts whining all the time.

I'm not too optimistic that everybody will be happy with whatever gov't does to solve the immigration problem. The citizenry clearly wants a comprehensive solution, but gov't is only responding to the citizens because they've finally made enough noise. Gov't could have and should have solved this problem all along.

And don't forget that the illegals won't comply if the solution is too ornerous or too complicated for them.

This problem can be solved,but it will take a broad approach. BTW, I do have a fence around my property. I also have interior enforcement. Just because someone breaches my fence, doesn't mean I'll look away. You can bet I know who comes onto my property and that I really know who enters my home. Unwanted guests don't dictate who and how many of them come to my place. I decide who enters and for how long and for what purpose. I want no less for my country.

Among the areas of agreement, Shadegg said lawmakers were most committed to ending the so-called practice of "catch and release" in which illegal immigrants are apprehended but then released because the arresting officers lack the facilities or legal apparatus to detain them.

Criminy!

Bush has made ending this practice the cornerstone of his recent immigration proposal.

Of course he makes that his "cornerstone". That way he can avoid dealing with the presence of millions of illegal aliens. (Except for his it's not an amnesty temporary guest worker program, that is.)

It should be made a felony for Criminals who overstay their legal visas and Invaders.

I believe we should give amnesty to these poor CRIMINALS or INVADERS.
This should be a 2 week amnesty to get the heck out of our Country.
The ones who ignore this amnesty should be buried in a tent city jail and fined $10,000 or buried elsewhere.
All aiders and abettors of these CRIMINALS or INVADERS should get 1 year in a tent city jail and a $10,000 fine for each CRIMINAL aided.
Those in government of Cities should be the first ones charged.

Looks like Shadegg is coming around, finally.

I'm not sure you read what he said carefully enough.

“Doing it piecemeal would cut House members out of the process of legislating,” he said.

During the last three months, Shadegg has heard a wide range of member concerns on this issue and has come to believe that a majority of the Republican conference favors a comprehensive overhaul of the nation’s immigration policy.

“My sense is we should come back with a sense of urgency and finish a comprehensive bill as early in the year as possible,” Shadegg said.

Comprehensive is their code word for a GUESTWORKER SHAMNESTY!

I wonder how fast the border would be plugged if Muslim fiends crossed from Mexico and blew up San Francisco or Denver. The MSM and the admin. would say it was skinheads and the VRWC, but the truth would get out.
